- Description
- NASA/GSFC has a requirement for the acquisition of Optics Assembly using laser powder bed fusion. It is for the development and perfection of process parameters for the 3D-Printing of optics structures. The objective is to develop process parameters for the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) of Invar 36 on the Electro Optical Sciences (EOS) machine, provide design recommendations, and produce one optical mounting build containing decenter flexures that is representative of the 5-degree of freedom design. The versatility inherent in the L-PBF 3D-printing process allows for a one-piece-one-material build. NASA/GSFC intends to purchase the items from Edison Welding Institute Incorporated, pursuant to FAR 13.106, for the acquisition of supplies or services determined to be reasonably available from only one source. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 2:30 p.m. local time on August 20, 2015. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications ARE NOT acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/p ub_library/Omb.html.
